Hey,
Before i start i will include computer specs in case anyone can actually help me
MB:
OK, now problem.... For some stupid reason it seems that i cant dual-screen with 2 X VGA cables that are connected to VGA to DVI converters which enable it to be connected to the GPU. I have tried to update the drivers and have mucked around with it for quite some time, also it is not the monitors because it works when either monitor are put into the top DVI slot but not when put into the bottom/secondary DVI slot.. even when i boot up with it just in the bottom one it still doesn't work.
Also if i connect a monitor into the bottom slot with DVI cable it works fine, it just doesn't like VGA monitors
FYI: The monitors only support a VGA cable to be connected.
If you don't know how to fix this problem who would want a ASUS VW227D 22" 1080p monitor which hasn't been used because my stupid graphics card wont let it work.. i bought it @ $150 so something moderately close to that would be nice.. You may try it out etc. and if u want more details about it just ask..
Hoping someone cant help me either way preferably if i can keep the monitors but both acceptable...
Thanks
